43 The Gamekeepers' Welfare Trust

Saison 1 · Épisode 43

mercredi 21 août 2024 • Durée 23:42

The rural countryside offers serene beauty, but for those who work its fields, forests, and hills, isolation can harbor silent struggles. In this deeply personal episode of The Outdoor Gibbon Podcast, we tackle the critical yet often overlooked issues of mental and physical health among gamekeepers, stalkers, and rural workers.

Starting with the psychological impact of a disappointing grouse season, we explore how working tirelessly year-round only to see days canceled creates immense pressure. These disappointments, coupled with employers who may not understand wildlife management complexities, leave many countryside workers carrying heavy burdens alone. Traditional masculine stoicism compounds the problem, making reaching out seem impossible even when darkness feels overwhelming.

The Gamekeepers Welfare Trust stands as a beacon of hope, offering confidential support through Jamie's Helpline (0300 123 3088). Their services prove especially valuable because they operate independently from official healthcare systems - a critical distinction for those worried about firearms certification implications. Helen from the Trust emphasizes they support "everybody about anything in the gamekeeping community," whether they're students starting out, actively working, or retired.

Beyond mental wellbeing, the episode confronts physical health challenges prevalent in rural professions. The culture of "pushing through" discomfort, fueled by energy drinks and convenient but unhealthy food choices, exacts a heavy toll. Heart disease lurks as a "silent killer" without obvious symptoms. The Trust provides accessible health checks measuring blood pressure, pulse, oxygen levels, and blood glucose - simple tests that have saved lives, including one man who discovered he needed heart stents through a routine check.

From nurse advice clinics to confidential counseling, these resources break down barriers to healthcare access for those living remote lives with demanding schedules. I've witnessed firsthand the importance of addressing high blood pressure early, and I want listeners to know they're not alone in these challenges.

Remember, your health matters - mental and physical. Call the Gamekeepers Welfare Trust, talk to a friend, or visit your doctor. These small steps might seem intimidating but could transform or even save your life. What health check will you schedule today?

33 Building Bridges: How Collaboration Can Save the Future of Deer Management

Saison 1 · Épisode 33

jeudi 16 mai 2024 • Durée 32:55

The future of deer stalking stands at a critical crossroads, with unity being the only path forward for this vital conservation practice. In this enlightening conversation with David McCauley, CEO of the British Deer Society, we unpack the urgent need for the deer stalking community to stop internal bickering and embrace collaboration before it's too late.

With the UK population projected to reach 69 million by 2030, human encroachment into deer territories presents unprecedented challenges. David eloquently articulates how deer management isn't about bloodthirsty hunting but about balancing ecosystems, protecting biodiversity, and practicing ethical conservation. His perspective offers a refreshing lens: "We're not bloodthirsty people. We're people trying to control deer, manage the countryside, and have more effective tree planting."

The conversation reveals how internal divisions within the stalking community provide ammunition for anti-hunting activists, while highlighting the stark disconnect between urban populations and their understanding of food sources. The British Deer Society's new strategy centers on three pillars—welfare, education, and research—with ambitious plans to develop a sector-wide framework and bring conservation education to inner-city schools.

Perhaps most compelling is the revelation that many stalkers are conservation-minded individuals who sometimes choose to simply observe and photograph these majestic animals rather than hunt them. This deeper appreciation for wildlife directly challenges the stereotypes perpetuated by those unfamiliar with ethical stalking practices.

Whether you're an experienced deer manager, conservation enthusiast, or simply curious about sustainable wildlife management, this episode offers profound insights into how collective action can preserve both deer populations and stalking traditions for generations to come. Listen now to understand why unity isn't just desirable—it's essential for survival.

32 Gold Rush: The Kayla Johansson Story

Saison 1 · Épisode 32

jeudi 9 mai 2024 • Durée 55:21

Have you ever wondered what it's really like to be a gold miner? Not the romanticized version from books or the dramatized scenes on reality TV, but the authentic day-to-day experience of someone who makes their living extracting gold from riverbeds? Meet Kayla Johansson, a professional gold dredger who's turned a weekend hobby into a thriving full-time career in the challenging wilderness of Alaska.

Kayla takes us on a fascinating journey through her 18-year evolution from curious teenager to seasoned prospector. Unlike traditional miners who dig through dirt with heavy machinery, she specializes in underwater dredging – essentially hovering up riverbed material while weighted down with up to 82 pounds of equipment and battling strong currents. The physical demands are intense, but the rewards go beyond just the gold she finds.

What happens to that gold might surprise you. Rather than simply cashing in, Kayla transforms her larger nuggets into handcrafted jewelry and packages smaller gold particles into guaranteed pay dirt bags for hobbyists. This clever business model allows her to continue generating income during Alaska's harsh winters when active mining isn't possible. It's just one example of the resourcefulness required to succeed in this challenging profession.

We also get an unfiltered look behind the scenes of "Gold Rush: Whitewater," where Kayla gained wider recognition. She reveals how a week's worth of actual mining gets condensed into minutes of dramatic television, the constant need to explain basic mining concepts for viewers, and the artificial scenarios sometimes created for compelling storytelling. It's an eye-opening contrast between reality TV and the actual reality of professional gold mining.

From close encounters with grizzly bears to the unique challenges of living off-grid in remote Alaskan wilderness, this episode delivers authentic, firsthand insights into a lifestyle few will ever experience. Whether you're fascinated by outdoor adventure, curious about unconventional careers, or simply enjoy stories of people forging their own paths, you'll find something valuable in Kayla's remarkable story.

Listen now and discover what it truly means to hunt for treasure in the modern world. Then follow Kayla's continuing adventures on her social channels, where she's begun sharing more authentic glimpses into the life of a professional gold miner.

31 The Chef's Hunt: José Suto on Deer Stalking and Game Cooking

Saison 1 · Épisode 31

dimanche 31 mars 2024 • Durée 01:41:30

José Suto takes us on a captivating journey through his remarkable career as both a celebrated game chef and passionate deer stalker. Unlike the traditional path into fieldsports, José's story begins in the professional kitchens of the House of Commons, where a colleague introduced him to falconry – sparking a lifelong obsession that would eventually lead him to deer stalking.

What makes José's perspective so valuable is his ability to bridge two worlds. As a culinary educator with over 20 years of experience, he's trained thousands of chefs in the proper understanding, preparation, and appreciation of game meats. His field-to-fork philosophy has transformed how many professionals approach venison and other wild foods.

The conversation reveals fascinating insights about game preparation through history. José explains how modern refrigeration has changed our approach to game, contrasting traditional hanging practices with contemporary preferences for fresher, ethically-harvested meat. His passionate defense of British venison quality compared to continental European alternatives highlights the superior results of careful stalking practices.

Throughout our discussion, José shares practical knowledge about his preferred equipment – from his beloved Sako rifles to Steiner optics – while emphasizing that confidence in quality tools is essential for ethical hunting. His description of teaching butchery skills to culinary students demonstrates his commitment to maintaining traditional knowledge and passing it to future generations.

Don't miss José's exciting announcement about the upcoming venison butchery competition at the Stalking Show, offering participants the chance to demonstrate their skills following his technique and win premium prizes including professional-grade Flint and Flame knives.

Whether you're a seasoned stalker, a culinary professional, or simply curious about the journey of wild game from field to plate, José's passionate expertise offers valuable insights into this vital connection between hunting traditions and fine dining.

30 The Stalking Show isn't just an event, it's a community gathering.

Saison 1 · Épisode 30

mercredi 20 mars 2024 • Durée 34:55

The countdown to the Stalking Show 2024 has begun, and this exclusive preview with show organizer David Freer reveals why this rapidly growing event has become the unmissable gathering for the UK hunting community.

Born from late-night conversations in a Scottish pub about the decline of specialized hunting exhibitions, the Stalking Show has evolved from a passion project into the premier dedicated stalking event in Britain. As David explains, what started three years ago with 94 exhibitor stands has exploded to 246 for the upcoming April 13-14 event at Staffordshire County Showground.

Unlike broader country shows where hunting vendors get lost among hot tubs and window salespeople, the Stalking Show maintains a laser focus on hunting and stalking through a strict vetting process. Every stand must demonstrate clear relevance to the hunting world, creating an immersive experience where visitors can engage meaningfully with every exhibitor they encounter.

The 2024 show features several exciting expansions, including a dramatically enhanced deer calling competition with Harkila sponsorship and prizes including Leupold scopes, Swarovski binoculars, and thermal imaging equipment. The Really Wild Kitchen returns with Jose Suto and Rachel Green hosting butchery competitions featuring thousands of pounds in prizes. A Scottish piper from the Isle of Skye will add traditional flair, opening both the show and the deer calling competition.

For visitors, the Stalking Show offers an unbeatable weekend experience. With tickets priced at just £15 online (£5 less than at the door), free parking, and exhibitors encouraged to offer genuine show deals, it's a rare opportunity to combine premium shopping, learning opportunities, competitions, and community connections. The event attracts attendees from across the UK and Ireland, many making a full weekend of it to ensure they don't miss anything.

Want a chance to win some incredible prizes? Find me at the show to enter our exclusive competition featuring stag stalking, Richie Nanks knives, a Deer Central three-point leather sling, Katie Hargreaves' deer species book, or an Outdoor Gibbon beanie.

Mark your calendar for April 13-14, grab your tickets online, and join the UK's most passionate stalkers and hunters for a weekend that celebrates the best of our community!

29 The Scandinavian Approach: A Conversation with Beatrice the Hunting Psychologist

Saison 1 · Épisode 29

mercredi 13 mars 2024 • Durée 01:03:16

Discover the fascinating world of Swedish hunting through the eyes of Beatrice, known as "the hunting psychologist" on Instagram, as she shares her journey and the unique aspects of Scandinavian hunting culture.

The conversation begins with a striking revelation about Sweden's comprehensive hunting qualification system. Unlike the UK's relatively open approach, Swedish hunters face rigorous theoretical and practical examinations before receiving their hunting permits. Beatrice walks us through the process of obtaining not just a hunting license but also the surprisingly stringent requirements for owning a hunting dog – a process she describes as "almost like a job interview."

What truly shines through is Beatrice's passion for hunting with pointing dogs. Her voice brightens as she describes the almost magical quality of watching a dog go completely still on point – "That pointing gene just never stops to amaze me." This connection between hunter, dog, and quarry forms the emotional core of her hunting experience, revealing how similar passions transcend national boundaries and regulatory differences.

The podcast takes a thought-provoking turn when discussing the ethics of social media content around hunting. Beatrice advocates for thoughtful representation that goes beyond "just dead animals in awkward positions," emphasizing the importance of storytelling and showing proper respect for harvested animals. This perspective offers valuable insight for hunters navigating the delicate balance of authentically sharing their experiences while considering how non-hunters might perceive their content.

Perhaps most fascinating is the discussion of wildlife management challenges, particularly Sweden's wolf reintroduction program and its unforeseen consequences. As wolves specifically target hunting dogs, many hunters avoid releasing their dogs in wolf territories, creating unhunted zones where game populations grow unchecked. This complex interplay between conservation decisions, hunting practices, and wildlife populations demonstrates how even well-intentioned policies can have unexpected ripple effects.

28 The Wild Order: Introducing Outsiders to Nature's Hunt

Saison 1 · Épisode 28

lundi 4 mars 2024 • Durée 50:36

Arthur's journey from vegetarian London urbanite to passionate hunting educator is the compelling foundation of The Wild Order, an innovative program designed to introduce newcomers to ethical hunting and wild game processing.

"The countryside isn't just a place – it's a relationship," Arthur explains, reflecting on how his first taste of meat during travels in Asia sparked a passion for understanding where food comes from. After struggling for years to break into the traditionally closed-off world of deer stalking, he created The Wild Order to offer others a more accessible pathway into hunting.

Unlike conventional hunting courses that require significant commitment or prior knowledge, The Wild Order welcomes complete novices into experiences that reveal the entire process – from understanding wildlife behavior to ethical harvesting, proper field handling, and butchery techniques. Participants don't just pull triggers; they develop meaningful connections with the landscape, learning about conservation, animal health assessment, and sustainable food procurement along the way.

Having seen both sides of the equation – growing up in a vegetarian household in London before becoming a hunter – Arthur brings unique perspective to heated debates about meat consumption and wildlife management. "Vegans and hunters actually have more in common than they might think," he suggests, pointing out that both groups seek meaningful relationships with their food sources. This approach has proven effective at opening eyes, with many participants describing their experiences as transformative.

Looking forward, The Wild Order plans to expand beyond deer stalking to include free diving, fishing, and foraging experiences on Scotland's west coast, always maintaining their fundamental commitment to teaching people how to respect and properly utilize wild food sources. Whether you're curious about sustainable meat, seeking closer connection with nature, or simply want to understand where your food comes from, The Wild Order offers a thoughtful pathway into hunting's deeper purpose.

27 Katie Hargreaves Wildlife artist and deer stalker

Saison 1 · Épisode 27

vendredi 16 février 2024 • Durée 01:07:09

There's something wonderfully contradictory about Katie Hargreaves. She's a vegan who hunts deer. A colorful painter who found fame through black and white charcoal. An accidental artist whose work now hangs in homes across continents.

Katie's artistic journey began with a simple birthday gift—a fallow buck painting for her hunting-enthusiast boyfriend. Despite her background in vibrant, psychedelic colors, she reluctantly tried charcoal "to prove him wrong" when he suggested black and white. That experiment changed everything when her first charcoal pieces sold immediately at a Beretta Gallery event in London. "People seemed to really like those because it's completely different," she explains, describing how she discovered her signature style almost by accident.

What makes Katie truly fascinating is her ethical framework. Eight years ago, she became vegan after researching industrial meat production, yet she stalks deer and consumes venison when ethically hunted. This apparent contradiction dissolves when she explains: "My ethics to become a vegan are exactly why I also agree with hunting." She understands conservation necessity and wildlife management in ways many vegans and non-hunters don't, creating a unique bridge between these communities through her art.

Beyond her distinctive charcoal drawings—primarily of deer and hunting subjects—Katie recently collaborated with the British Deer Society on their field guide, completed her Deer Stalking Certificate, and regularly exhibits at major UK field sports shows. She's temporarily closed commissions to focus on larger, more dramatic pieces and dreams of photographing African wildlife to create art from her own references.

Want to experience Katie's remarkable work firsthand? Visit her at upcoming field sports shows or explore her website for originals and prints that bring the beauty of wildlife and the outdoors into your home. Each piece carries her unmistakable style—timeless black and white images that celebrate our connection to the natural world.

26 The one stop shop for deer stalking equipment and training "Deercentral"

Saison 1 · Épisode 26

jeudi 1 février 2024 • Durée 01:08:09

Have you ever wondered what it takes to build a successful deer stalking business from the ground up? Get ready for a fascinating journey as we sit down with Ben from Deer Central, a man whose path went from teenage air rifle enthusiast to military service and eventually to becoming one of the most respected voices in deer management training and equipment.

Ben shares his evolution from stalking hedgerows on his pushbike as a youngster to managing deer on Ministry of Defence estates, where he honed the skills that would later become the foundation of his business. His passion for passing knowledge to others shines through as he explains how Deer Central emerged from his combined experience in deer management, training delivery, and even his time as a butler on a sporting estate.

The conversation delves into the craft behind Deer Central's signature leather three-point harness sling, created to fill the market gap left when the popular Z-Aim sling disappeared during COVID. Ben's attention to quality and functionality has made this product a standout success, along with clever adaptations like the additional leather pad for muzzle-down carrying – addressing the real needs of stalkers in the field.

We explore the recent changes to the Deer Stalking Certificate system, with Ben providing valuable insights on how the shift of "trained hunter" status from DSC1 to DSC2 ensures stalkers have practical experience before placing venison into the food chain. His tips on marksmanship, knife skills, and equipment selection are gold for both newcomers and experienced hunters alike.

Perhaps most compelling is Ben's innovative "Field to Fork" experience, combining fine dining with hands-on stalking education – aimed at connecting city dwellers with the complete journey of their food. As he puts it, "you get so much more out of being in wildlife by slowing down," a philosophy that permeates everything Deer Central stands for.

Whether you're just starting your deer stalking journey or looking to refine your skills and equipment, this episode offers wisdom from someone who's truly mastered the craft from every angle.
